Land grabbing - like taking candy from a baby

Sri Lankan government officials in Colombo have ordered the divisional secretary of Moothoor to hand over a playground to the occupying Sri Lankan officials, reported TamilNet.

Consequently, the playground has been handed over without any discussion with the people of the area or the school administration.

The playground, which has been in use since 1948, served as a common central recreational sight for multiple villages in the Moothoor area, and will now be used as land to provide for Sri Lankan Police residence.
